0% paper – 100% transparency for you: the FLT app

We introduced a completely paperless workflow in 2014. We group our various digital interfaces in FLT’s own app. This means that our field force employees always have an overview of customer data on their tablets: store floor plans, modules, performance data or sales catalogues. All briefings and tasks are also distributed digitally and centrally via the FLT app.
As a customer, you have your own account for server access. This gives you a full overview of the current status in real-time. Thanks to photographic documentation and redesign reports, project approval can also be handled easily and transparently.
